 [NYP] A co-owner of the Brooklyn construction company being scrutinized by the feds as part of a larger probe into Mayor Eric Adams’ fundraising has long flaunted a lavish, jet-setting lifestyle.Erden Arkan, the globe-trotting 74-year-old owner of KSK Construction Group in Williamsburg, regularly posts dispatches with his wife Itir on social media from fancy locations around the world, including snapshots of their March vacation in Osaka, Japan; scenes of hot air balloons floating in the sky above Cappadocia, Turkey; and souvenir shanties on Greece’s Chios Island. "#Theking #andhisserf," Itir, 73, cooed on Instagram in June 2022, while posting a photo of her hubby regally sitting on a chair-shaped marble boulder during their visit to the archaeological site of Aphrodisia in Turkey. In 2020, the couple forked over $2.1 million for a 6th-floor, 1,193-square-foot apartment in the high-rise condo at 570 Broome Street, which his company constructed and whose higher-profile residents include "Jersey Shore" star Vinny Guadagnino.
